I know my body well enough to know that I was not going back to sleep. I got up and started my day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My signal to noise ratio this past week was not great. Signal-to-noise ratio is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. When the background noise is overwhelming, it can be hard to get the signal to punch through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there has been a lot of background noise this week in my life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel like a Yo-yo of emotions with things changing really fast. Caroline has been in the same situation this past week. Even was not a word I would use right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clarity of mind is precious. It allows for rational decisions to be make and let\u2019s one see the path before them. There have been times in my life that I know beyond any doubt that I am doing what I am supposed to be doing and where I need to be at that moment. Right now, I know I am where I need to be, but the doing is a little more ephemeral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strangely I feel that I need to slow down and catch up with my brain. Too much going on in the noggin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This morning I have a plan of attack for the day. Now I need to execute it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also have a plan for my mental health. I have to remind myself it is okay to slow down and get my brain under control. It is not a weakness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope this week is better than last week for my mental health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I know I will muddle on and get to the next thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am grateful for clarity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I woke up as the sun started to rise this morning.
